TAMPA (CBS4) ―
God spent the night in a Tampa jail cell after he was charged with selling cocaine near a church.
God Lucky Howard, 39, was arrested Saturday after police said he sold the cocaine to undercover detectives in his neighborhood.
This was not the first time Howard has had a run in with the law.
Last April, he was arrested after allegedly selling undercover officers 3.4 grams of cocaine from his home. A search of the home later uncovered a safe in Howards bedroom that contained 22 grams of cocaine and a scale.
Howard was charged with several counts drug possession and distribution, which include increased charges for being within 1,000 feet of a church, a school and public housing.
He's being held on a bond of $86,500.
